A project over eleven years in the making, Cortex Command has rich 2D
pixel graphics coupled with an extremely detailed physics engine, which
allows for highly replayable and emergent real-time action. There is also
a turn-based strategic campaign mode which ties the tactical fights
together, featuring persistent terrains that will accumulate the battle
scars, debris, and bunker ruins through your entire campaign.
Choose from several unique technology factions, each featuring their own
sets of expendable soldier bodies, mechas, weapons, tools, and landing
craft. Protect your brain, mine the gold, and destroy the enemy cortex in
his bunker complex!
Features:
~~~~~~~~~
* Fully destructible environments - The gold you need to excavate is
sprinkled throughout the terrain of each scene. Use special digging
tools to blast your way into the dirt and debris. All the pieces of
bodies and ships from your struggles will fall to the ground and
permanently add to the battlefield. Get more powerful (and expensive)
diggers and you can even tunnel into your enemies bunkers from below!
* In-game buying menu - At any time and place during the game, bring up
a powerful menu to order new bodies and equipment, all delivered at
the location and by the transport ship of your choosing. Rockets are
cheaper but unreliable and harder to land. Drop ships are far more
expensive but can quickly deploy entire groups of puppets onto
difficult terrain. Ships and equipment returned to the TradeStar are
refunded to your account.
* Build your own bunker - At the start of most missions, you are able to
take your time and build your own command bunker from scratch. Easily
design twisting tunnels and place doors, traps, and turrets to thwart
your enemies intrusions! Pre-deploy and equip bodies in and around
your installation to prepare yourself for your objectives. Dont spend
too much though, or you wont have enough funds left when the mission
starts!
* Four-player cooperative and/or versus multiplayer - Gather your
friends and plug in those game controllers! Play skirmish or campaign
missions with or against up to three of your buddies. 2 vs 2, 1 vs. 3,
4 vs. the CPU - its up to you! (rhyme intended). Flexible control
settings allow you to use the keyboard, keyboard + mouse, or any
generic game controller you can find and plug in.
* Built-in editors and modding - Several in-game editors allow you to
easily create your own stuff. The games engine is built to make it
very simple to modify and add your own content. Design your own
missions, guys, ships, weapons, tools, bombs, and shields - and easily
share them with your friends. Join and download some fantastic mods
from the community at the Data Realms Fan Forums.
